(Other People’s) Thoughts on Programming
2 Comments Published by vladimir July 21st, 2008 in MozillaA discussion on programming (“software engineering” if you want to get all fancy) arose on an IRC channel, and a few interesting links were posted. This video is perhaps the best visual representation that I’ve seen of what a programmer’s job is often like. Luckily, working at Mozilla and with the great people in our community, I also get to experience a lot of what Gustavo describes here, so it all works out.
Are you sure you’ve linked to the right video? That link sends me to some guy trying to play a Mario mod. I don’t see how that related to programming.
Heh, I really liked this succinct post. I guess its just not the programmer whose life is like that, even the solution architect sometimes faces similar wtf situations :)
